FRESH & FRUITY - February 2025 curdbox

February 20, 2025 • Jenn Mason with Julie Fei-Fan Balzer

WELCOME TO THE FRESH & FRUITY CURDBOX

Young cheeses, with their bright, fresh flavors and creamy textures, offer a perfect canvas for creativity when paired with fruits. Their mild profiles, often smooth and delicate, allow the natural sweetness and tang of fruits to shine, elevating each bite with layers of complexity. Whether it's the crisp contrast of fresh fruit or the sugary tang of preserves—a single type of cheese can take on endless variations in flavor and texture. The beauty lies in how the cheese adapts to the fruits it’s paired with—creating a delightful and ever-changing tasting experience. This month, we explore how these fresh, youthful cheeses and fruits come together to enhance each other, turning every pairing into a new and exciting taste experience.

So let’s take a look and see what we brought you in this month’s box...
